Chapter 18: Should This Be Called Alchemy? (below)
When it comes to jewelry exhibitions, Zheng Jing's mind has the impression that in a place that is decorated like a palace, there are crowds of people, and a group of people are lively and busy picking jewelry together.
But when he reached the second floor, Zheng Jing found that the situation here was far from what he imagined.
The area of this jewelry building is quite large, and the second floor has an area of at least three or four hundred square meters, but there is no very complicated decoration, except for a few posters hanging on the white wall, there are only a few glass display cases scattered here, and the dazzling jewelry and jewelry in the glass cabinet are already the best decoration here.
There are not many people here, there are only a few dozen people at a glance, and they are all quiet, the men are all in suits and leather shoes, and the women, whether they are models or visitors, are dressed in gorgeous dresses, pacing gracefully in the venue, as if attending a ball in a high-end venue.
However, in such an atmosphere, there are still bursts of exclamations from time to time, which are caused by the appearance of particularly rare jewelry.
casually browsing the gemstone jewelry in the glass display cabinets next to him, Zheng Jing thought he was a layman, he didn't feel the slightest bit of gems and jade that were no different from glass and plastic, and he couldn't help but ask Guo Jia beside him: "Do you really like these things so much?" ”
Guo Jia's eyes widened as soon as he entered the venue, and he couldn't wait to even blink his eyelids, for fear that these jewels in front of him would suddenly disappear, as soon as he heard Zheng Jing's question, he replied without thinking about it: "Of course, if I have money, I really want to buy all the jewelry here, even if I don't wear it on my body, I am willing to keep it at home." ”
"Are all these things expensive?"
"Not very expensive, but very, very, very expensive!" Guo Jia's eyes became watery as she spoke, and she wanted to cry, and said, "Have you seen that glass jade pendant?" It's only such a small piece, and it's slightly impurities, so the price is more than a million, and the necklace made of natural black pearls, I think it's better not to let me know the price. And you know what? It can only be regarded as a medium-sized exhibition, and in some international auction houses, the finest jewelry worth tens of millions of dollars is also often present. ”
Zheng Jing, who has just been worth three million in the past two days, is still very proud, and has a heroic feeling that the whole world can buy it, but when he looks at these jewels that cost millions at every turn today, he knows what it means to be a nouveau riche.
Zheng Jing secretly pondered in his heart, since jewelry is so popular and valuable, then he can develop this aspect more in the future, maybe the priceless jade on the earth is just a broken stone used to pave the way on other planets? Even if he can't find such a planet, he just has nothing to do and use alchemy to make some diamonds to make it out, so that he can eat and drink without worrying about it in this life.
At this time, I saw Guo Jia clutching his chest and shouting: "Ah, I really can't stand it, Zheng Jing, let's get out of here quickly, seeing that these babies like but can't afford it, it's really entangled in me." ”
Zheng Jing smiled bitterly and touched his wallet, estimating that there were indeed few jewels in the jewelry that he could afford as an upstart, so he was ready to take Guo Jia away. I still thought in my heart that after a while, his alchemy would improve, and he would make a diamond the size of a basketball for Guo Jia, so as not to shock her to death.
At this moment, another exclamation sounded not far away, this time the call was louder than the previous one, Zheng Jing subconsciously turned his head to take a look, and when he saw a familiar face, his attention was immediately attracted to it.
At the center of the crowd was a tall female model, and next to the female model stood a very young-looking man, and that man happened to be He Kai, who had been taught by Zheng Jing once in school last time.
The people present are either rich or expensive, and those who have seen the wind and waves will naturally not be ordinary objects that can cause them to exclaim and watch, which is a blue diamond inlaid in a necklace on the chest of the female model, with the dark blue dress on the female model, which is particularly dazzling in the center of the venue.
"Blue diamonds are inherently rare, and this one is estimated to be at least two to three carats just by looking at the size, and I think it's worth two or three million at least." A middle-aged man with glasses analyzed seriously.
"Two or three million? That's just the money for diamonds, not the overall artistic value of the necklace. ”
There was a lot of discussion around the people, and everyone's attention was all on the rare blue diamond, but no one paid attention to the female model who looked a little good and had a good figure.
At this time, Zheng Jing had already come over, went directly to He Kai's side, and said in a very intimate manner: "What is that Kai...... Triumphant...... Triumphant...... Brother Kaizi! Why are you here? There's something good for me to see, buddy. ”
He Kai was still proud in the crowd of onlookers, and suddenly frowned when he heard this very rude way of greeting, and when he saw that the person who came over was Zheng Jing, a nasty ghost who had only pit him once two days ago, he was so angry that he couldn't help but jump up.
You are Kaizi, your whole family is Kaizi. He Kai gritted his teeth and glanced at Zheng Jing, he was not easy to have a seizure in public, and he wanted to pretend not to know him directly, but when he saw Guo Jia who was following Zheng Jing, he reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said hello.
"Guo Jia, Zheng Jing, let me introduce to you, next to me is my girlfriend Lisa, who works as a model. Recently, she said that I ordered a blue diamond necklace for her from South Africa, and it happened that there was a jewelry exhibition held here today, so I brought my girlfriend and this precious diamond here to communicate with you. ”
"You...... Hello. Lisa next to He Kai greeted with a slightly stiff smile, Zheng Jing smiled back in a friendly manner, and Guo Jia simply didn't bother to look at this woman with a fat powder smell, so she almost wrote the words "I am black fungus" on her face.
He Kai saw Guo Jia's disdainful expression, he didn't say anything on the surface, but gritted his teeth unnoticedly, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Guo Jia's white and slender neck like a swan, which was a very natural white and red color, compared with the color of the woman next to him who didn't know how many layers of makeup she had to apply to her face, it was simply the difference between white jade and lime, how perfect it would be if that blue diamond necklace could be worn on her neck.
What's so good about that poor boy? Isn't there just two brute forces? He Kai, who came out of breath, looked at Zheng Jing, who was still smiling, and noticed Guo Jia's simple dress, and immediately sneered, and said, "Oh, classmate Guo Jia, don't you know what the occasion is today?" How did you come here with such a simple dress? Zheng Jing, didn't he buy two pieces of jewelry for you here? ”
He Kai's sarcasm was obvious, his girlfriend Lisa was wearing a necklace worth millions of dollars that he had given, and Guo Jia followed Zheng Jing, not only did she have no jewelry, but she didn't even buy her a decent dress, so she didn't notice the gap between herself and the poor boy?
Guo Jia wanted to say something when he heard this, but was stopped by Zheng Jing, only to see Zheng Jing smiling in front of Guo Jia, and said to He Kai: "I must have bought jewelry for my girlfriend, but now I am still more interested in your blue diamond, can you take a closer look?" ”
"Absolutely." He Kai took off the necklace from Lisa's neck with great grace and handed it to Zheng Jing, but he was slandering in his heart, look, look at the things that a poor ghost like you can't afford in his life, realize the gap with Young Master Ben, and then honestly go home and masturbate at the computer.
Zheng Jing took the blue diamond in his hand with one hand, looked at it carefully, and then touched it with his fingers.
Zheng Jing raised his eyelids slightly and glanced at He Kai, to be honest, he must not be interested in this low-level evil young man, he was only interested in that diamond, he wanted to figure out the structure of this superb diamond, and go back to use alchemy to make diamonds according to this shape.
However, while doing this, he didn't mind teasing this Kaizi by the way.
No one present noticed that Zheng Jing's other hand quietly reached into his pocket, and a dark red stone was already caught between his fingers.
The Philosopher's Stone, an alchemy magic weapon that can be refined at will regardless of the law, while preparing this thing, Zheng Jing has already clearly felt the shape and size of the blue diamond in his hand, and even the atomic structure in it, what kind of elements are added to present this color clearly appear in his mind.
The first order of using alchemy, the understanding of the item, has been completed.
The second order of alchemy is to decompose, Zheng Jing's trouser pocket, without using any cumbersome refining array, the dark red stone between Zheng Jing's fingers automatically melted, and then changed according to the form Zheng Jing wanted.
Finally, there is the final sequence of alchemy, formation.
In the eyes of outsiders, Zheng Jing just casually put one hand in his trouser pocket, played with the diamond in his hand twice with the other, and then returned the diamond necklace to He Kai with a smile on his face.
"Hehe, how about my diamond? It is said that there are not many blue diamonds like this in the whole country. He Kai's expression was full of unconcealed pride, he was also telling the truth, and he estimated that Zheng Jing didn't know what to say after hearing these words.
But Zheng Jing shook his head slightly: "Your diamond is beautiful, but it's too small, I've seen better than this." ”
He Kai disagreed: "Who wouldn't say big words?" If you have the ability, you can take out the diamond that you said is better than this. ”
To He Kai's surprise again, Zheng Jing did not change color when he heard this, and said, "Are you sure you want to see it?" Then I'm out there. ”
"Uh." He Kai was stunned, he didn't know what medicine was sold in Zheng Jing's gourd.
"Don't be foolish! If you really have a diamond better than this, I can buy you for ten times the price, okay? ”
"Then I'll really take it out." Zheng Jing smiled slightly, and the hand that had been inserted in his trouser pocket slowly pulled out, and as soon as the hand left his trouser pocket, a dazzling light flashed between his fingers.
A striking blue diamond is right in Zheng Jing's finger! The shape is exactly the same as He Kai's, and the color is exactly the same! is only the head, which is a whole circle bigger than He Kai's!
